Best looking airplane parts

Ok I know this sounds like a, what the heck is he talkingabout subject but, give it a chance, it could be fun. Also I am tired ofchecking in on the vintage forum and not seeing anything new. This is also my firstattempt at this so keep that in mind also.

Ok, hear is the topic. Design a new antique/classic airplaneusing the parts of existing antique and classic that you like the most. That’sit.

Example

Wings Howard DGA 15
Tail Funk
Nose Piper J3
Fuselage Fairchild 24
Landinggear Stinson 108

That’s it, mash them all together and you have a newantique. I have already done this, have drawings and a scale model of it, Icall mine the Mutt. (My Ultimate Time Traveler)

There it is I hope this starts some discussion, Have fun.

Bob

This is COOL! Besides COOL it has some very interesting possibilities for projects. Of course, it's been done to some degree. I wonder where such a project would stand with the 51% rule. I'd look into it!

I think it looks great. I wonder where they will park you at Oshkosh.
